HUNT IN A WHOLE NEW WORLD WITH PREHISTORIC CREATURES IN GT INTERACTIVE'S 'CARNIVORES 2' PC GAME; What Was Thought To Be Extinct Is Now Reborn In 'Carnivores' Sequel
MINNEAPOLIS, October 21, 1999 - Another world. Another time. Another test of the fittest. Go back in time and hunt the mammoth creatures of prehistoric ages with GT Interactive Software's (Nasdaq: GTIS) Carnivores 2 for PC CD-ROM from WizardWorks, shipping this week to retail stores nationwide. Carnivores 2 is the sequel to the popular Carnivores dinosaur hunting game. With a brand new game engine, Carnivores 2 includes much larger land masses with incredible details and additional dinosaurs, hunting locations and weapons.
"Carnivores 2 is an exciting game for anyone to play because it brings together the popular hunting genre with the fantasy world and creates a fun, action-packed game where not only players can hunt, but they can also become the hunted if they're not careful," said Paul Rinde, senior vice president of GT's Leisure Publishing Division. "Carnivores 2 heightens the gameplay experience with more dinosaurs to hunt, new hunting territories and more powerful weapons."
Carnivores 2 puts gamers in a new prehistoric world with creatures from a time long ago. With enough weaponry to flatten a mountain range, you begin your search. You feel a surge of dominance over your next kill, but then come to an abrupt and haunting realization. You're out-numbered, outsmarted and the object of a deadly prehistoric creature's hunt. Running cannot help you this time; the hunter has become the hunted. -more-
